Also some people refer to their biological sex in the past tense just to please others. And some actually refer to their pre-op selves in the 3rd person although I think it's generally advised by medical professionals that they shouldn't. Everyone's different basically, what Greg's saying isn't actually wrong in terms of how a trans person might feel, it can just be really complicated and one trans person can't really be used as a representative example because of those reasons ^ as well as gender dysphoria just being more/less extreme in different people. I think it's easy for those of us without issues like this to simplify it into biological terms only it's just a much more complex way of thinking about gender and sex for those that do.

As someone with a transgender relative I’m shocked at the ignorance here. Trans people ARE in pain. Gender Dysphoria is a recognised medical condition, and it can kill people. I don’t think anyone would actually op for it on a shopping list of procedures, because being trans clearly still carries a major stigma. It’s a tough life. And I for one think india looks amazing!!! |

Also suicide rates are actually higher for trans people after transitioning (not right after, but I think it was 5/10 years later..will find the study in a bit) so it does not actually reduce the suicide rate at all. It does short term, proabbly the same was that someone with BDD having plastic surgery makes them feel better for a short period of time. As for the question in the OP..I really do not know. I do agree life saving treatments should come first tbh but who decides whats life saving? I think its ridiculous that some kids with cancer have to be crowdfunding for treatments whilst boob jobs and such are given out though. I think there needs to be more studies done on transgender people and the medical outcomes of various treatments though, to understand it all better as it does not seem that surrect treatment regimes actually do work. Research into detransitioners was blocked recently...its odd.

Needs to go back to being transsexual, not 'transgender' IMO. Transgender encompasses a ridiculous amount of people. I am classed as ****ing transgender when I do not actually have sex dysphoria.

Personally, I think that reaction by OTHERS would wear me down - even though I personally had done everythjng I could to be happy. So, as one of the “others”, why can’t we just treat people with respect and stop denigrating them?

I don't call transwomen he or transmen she. But I do have issues occasionally (India was one of those ones actually) where my brain just cannot help seeing a male merson, and as such, I use he by mistake.
And yes, other peoples reactions to you could well make you feel suicidal I guess. But dismissing any other reason is a bit silly. And its not research from the 50s at all. It specifically says where its from Quote:
Much much more research needs to go into the whole thing. issue it, research is deemed transphobic. And asking questions is deemed transphobic. And any medical intervention besides surgery and hormones is deemed gatekeeping.

Surely ANY research into transgender stuff should be welcomed to understand the whole thing better

They don’t “want”. They NEED. If this survery is not available, a high percentage of trans people kill themselves. Unless you - like Ann - believe that conversion therapy is an option, the only treatment is gender reassignment surgery. You deem to be labouring under the impression it’s a lifestyle choice?

The NHS has a limited budget, which means that sometimes tough decisions have to be made. Someone is always going to loose out. More money for the NHS isnt always option either, because that would mean paying more NI, tax etc. Speaking as someone who struggles to make ends meet, I would find this difficult, and wouldnt be happy to fund things that dont require treatment for medically recognised conditions. Im happy for transgender to undergo surgery to achieve there goal, but not at someone elses expense.
Perhaps there are other workable solutions out there that they shoould explore. |
